    There is a user on NBF that use to have it. You can also contact dell and ask for the Media Direct Reinstallation disc.

    Can I ask why you need it? I've gotten this question alot lately, and was wondering if there is some problem. If you have reformatted, then all you need to do is repair Media Direct, not reinstall it.

    I deleted the HPA space on the HD, so now I was going to do a fresh install of MediaDirect. I haven't found a good link yet, they all seem to be a month or two old, and I was going to call Dell as a last resort.

    You can go to Dell's chat support and ask for them. All I did was ask for reinstallation CDs and they overnighted them to me. Very easy.

    That's going to be the easiest thing is to do as Konstantine suggested. If a link was posted on here, I would have to remove it anyways. Sorry.

    Hello,

    I've called Dell twice for this disc and they keep sending me the wrong discs... In the mean time I was able to find it on eMule network so give it a try.
